Obverse: The obverse of the coin depicts two different images of Dwight Eisenhower. The portrait in the background is showing Eisenhower’s left side profile in his younger years when he was a Five Star General. The portrait above showing his right side profile depicts Eisenhower in his later years as President of the United States of America.

Reverse: The reverse of the coin illustrates Eisenhower’s retirement home. The two story retirement home is located in the Gettysburg National Historical site.

The Proof coin is much more common as it has a mintage which is almost five times higher than the Uncirculated version.Mint Issue Price: The U.S. Mint sold the Uncirculated version for $23 each. The Proof version was priced at $29 each.
